Doesn’t really help when control facilities are so short staffed that they have controllers working ridiculous amounts of mandatory overtime. Might well make the problem worse when they need even more overtime shifts to make up for increased rest. They need to hire more and pay way more.
If you don’t want to use DNS for whatever reason. Then Firefox/Mull with Ublock origin for the browser only
This is the way. I paired it with a totally necesary $110 Arista 7050S for 52 ports of 10G SFP+ that I use maybe 7 ports of.
For what it’s worth, just about every panel like this is certified to have a specific number of fasteners missing. A lot of the time there will be some other qualifiers such as not missing the leading fastener or not missing adjacent fasteners. Having a bunch in a row like this incident would probably not be ok, but I couldn’t say without the maintenence manual.
All real permanent buildings. About half were 2 story, the rest one story. My loose understanding is that when the county set aside land for schools it was basically worthless so the schools got large footprints. The weather in the area was generally good so they save money by making campuses of smallish buildings instead of one big expensive building.
Mine was kinda ridiculous in retrospect. 16 buildings, for ~1600 students, not counting things like the snack stand at the football field. Actually fairly normal for the area. Even my elementary school has 9 real buildings plus 4 racks of portables.
Got an HPE Aruba switch, it’s the only HP thing I’ve ever had that I like. Getting new firmware from HP was a pita though.
Unsurprisingly, police are considering the case as a possible murder — but the classless poll still questioned whether readers thought the woman had died by suicide, murder, or accident. Beneath the question, a disclaimer that the poll was part of the company’s “insights from AI” somehow made the tasteless poll even more egregious.
Here’s the part about the actual poll.
Just wait until you encounter morse code abbreviations, some of which are still used in some industries. Like the wonderful X abbreviations, such as:
Wx - weather
Mx - maintainence
Tx/Rx - transmit/receive
Edit: I’m starting to think every industry totally did their own thing with morse abbreviations
Looks like an airforce trainer, probably had some sort of malfunction. Looks like it landed back at Shepard AFB. I wouldn’t worry about it, minor emergencies happen fairly regularly.
If we get some big breakthrough that sends storage costs and bandwidth cost way down then I think it’s possible. Otherwise between the astronomical costs involved and the difficulty attracting an audience and creators, I don’t think it would happen unless Google axes YouTube for whatever reason.
For network cables, FS.com. Their specialty is fiber optics and they have good transceivers and cables for really cheap prices and they also sell a tool to flash vendor info onto transceivers so if you have some picky proprietary box you can still use generic transceivers with it. Their copper products, DACs, regular cat6 patch cables, etc are good too. I haven’t tried their NICs or switches though.
The problem isn’t the manufacturer or the operator, it’s the middleman looking to make a profit on the the difference. In any case $800 is an absolutely ridiculous price point regardless of liability. I don’t know where the fair price point is but not even close to that. Liability isn’t the primary driver for the cost anyway, it’s difficulty of certification. Getting any part certified runs from high 5 figures to many millions of dollars and these are all extremely low volume parts. Boeing has only made around 11,000 737s since 1967. The plane I’m working with now only has around ~250 built since 2015 and is quite successful. For comparison Toyota produces about 20 cars per minute. When you need to pay back certification costs and turn even a modest profit on such low volume you need to charge a ton for each part.
To be clear I am absolutely not in support of non certified parts, it’s just a big problem in the industry and for rather obvious reasons.
The paperwork cost isn’t negligible at all. For example a company I used to work for had to replace a simple O-ring that failed. It’s an old part and quite rare these days and cost $800 to replace. You could buy a functionally equivalent (likely better) uncertified part for about 5 cents. That is why uncertified parts are such a problem, because certified ones are so incredibly expensive. Plenty of companies would love to step in and buy a few thousand O rings and sell them for $400 and a few are willing to forge a paper trail to make it happen. It’s a problem that I don’t really think will be ever totally solved without making certification too easy and potentially sacrificing safety by having bad certified parts.
The definitional boundary is where navigable airspace begins. You do own the non-navigable airspace above your property and you would have a trespassing argument if a drone entered that area without your permission. Where exactly the boundary is between navigable and non is a bit fuzzy but generally it will be at the highest object in the property eg. a treetop.
I still wouldn’t mess with the drone though, as another commenter said interfering with an aircraft of any type is a very serious crime.
If you can get a laptop with a few USB ports that can go a long way to helping with storage expansion. Try to avoid USB drives and SD cards, but attaching proper SSDs and HDDs with a USB caddy is a great option. Just don’t accidentally pass the boot drive USB controller to a vm like I did once.
For performance per dollar nothing beats used enterprise gear due to how little you can pick it up for on eBay. Now if you live somewhere where electricity isn’t stupid cheap or you don’t have a good way to mask the sound of a 1000 angry hornets, then enterprise might not be the way to go. Dell SFF PCs can make good servers. You can also go a long ways with just humble raspberry pis, get a whole bunch of them and you can use that to learn K8s too
Well yesterday I was on the clock for 12.5 hours, 7 hrs was spent operating equipment, ~3hrs on prep and clean up and the rest of the time was spent waiting for the next task. A pretty typical day for me. Today is my last day of my 5 days on and I have 4 days off.
Butchering generates filth but only final meal prep checks filth for food poisoning chance. So when you have extra space and resources it’s good to separate butchering from cooking to have the lowest chance of food poisoning. Also in an airlock design it keeps colonists from dragging bleeding dead animals through the kitchen.
When my dad died, no one renewed his domain, [last name].com, and some domain squatter bought it. A few years later the squatter noticed that I owned [last name].net and offered to sell it to me. I didn’t respond and I guess they figured out that an obscure last name isn’t worth anything and let it expire. I should probably buy it.
